Uric acid ratio (UAr) |
|||
Stage 2/1 | Stage 3/1 | Stage 4/1 | |
IUGR without preeclampsia | 1.14 ± 0.07 | 1.36 ± 0.02 | 1.37 ± 0.11 |
IUGR with preeclampsia | 1.84 ± 0.27 | 1.97 ± 0.33 | 2.44 ± 0.41 |
In IUGR pregnancies without preeclampsia, UAr was <1.5 along gestation. In contrast, in IUGR pregnancies with preeclampsia, UAr was higher than 1.5 since the early stages of gestation. Values are mean ± SEM.
